Morning Petition


Today, in the midst of simple tasks and mundane activities, please grant to me...


a heavenly perspective, that my eyes may see You,

a quiet heart, that my ears may hear Your Voice,

a willing spirit, that my hands may serve You,

a joy that cannot be quenched by the disappointments of life,

and a heart undeterred from Your purposes.


And when I fail, grant me repentance, gratitude for Your mercy and grace, the courage to press forward.

May Your Kingdom come on earth, and to the bit of space I occupy, as it is in heaven.
